God of Wine

Listening to Ji Bin's words, Ji Dong's heart turned. Someone robbed the bartenders guild? What is the purpose of this? You know, the most precious thing in the Bartenders Guild is alcohol. Killing and looting for the sake of wine is a bit too much. And all the ones dispatched were magicians, so there must be something hidden in it.

Ji Bin continued: "The bartenders' association is also a first-level association, especially since the association is located in the capital of our Beishui Empire. After this incident, the imperial family was furious and ordered a strict investigation. The entry and exit of Tianshui City were restricted. Du Sikang, the god of wine, was even more furious, and even his family members were taken away. That's why this city gate inspection was conducted. Are you going to our guild? I'll take you there."

Ji Dong probably understood the ins and outs, shook his head to Ji Bin, and said, "No need, we can go to the city by ourselves. Thank you for letting me know."

Ji Bin and another magician kept sending Ji Dong into the city. Instead of returning to the city gate to assist in the inspection, he went directly to the Tianshui City Branch of the Magicians Guild. The law enforcement elder is here, how could he not hurry to report.

Walking into Tianshui City, Ji Dong didn't bother to appreciate the deep and noble buildings here, and said to Lie Yan: "It's better to come early than to come at a good time. I didn't expect that we would just meet the Bartenders Guild suffering. It seems that this door-to-door challenge is not acceptable." Yes. People are in danger, so to challenge them at this time is to take advantage of their danger. Lie Yan, I have to take care of this matter. Although I don't think so much about the bartending ability of the Bartenders Guild. But, after all, they belong to the same line The senior brother is also the vice president of the bartenders association. From any point of view, I have to intervene in this matter. If I can help the bartenders association solve this matter. It is no problem to challenge the wine god Du Sikang Late."

Lie Yan smiled slightly and said, "It's up to you to decide. Shall we go to the Bartenders Club now?"

Ji Dong shook his head and said: "Don't be in such a hurry, let's find a place to live first, you and A Jin can rest, and I will go to the Bartenders Guild to investigate by myself. Just now, Ji Bin said that the thief left a letter for Du Sikang .I believe that this letter has a lot to do with the ins and outs of the whole matter. We must first clarify the situation."

The streets of Tianshui City were bustling with people, and there was no tension at all. Ji Dong found a very luxurious hotel to stay. As before, I also asked for a big suite. Of course, as the trust in Ah Jin deepened, it was natural that Lie Yan and Ah Jin lived in the inner room, and Ji Dong practiced on the sofa outside.

After settling down Lie Yan and A Jin, Ji Dong walked out of the hotel immediately. In order to avoid misunderstanding, he did not inquire about the location of the Bartenders Association, but directly bought a map of Tianshui City and read it carefully. He couldn't help being speechless for a while.

Is Tianshui City undefended this day? The Bartenders Association is just to the north of Tianshui City, only three streets away from the Beishui Imperial Palace. It can be said that the thieves ransacked the Bartenders Club at the gate of the royal family of the Beishui Empire. It is the imperial palace that is going to be attacked. It is really doubtful whether the imperial palace can stop it.

After all, Tianshui City is not as big as Zhongyuan City,

It didn't take long for Ji Dong to find the location of the Bartenders Association according to the map instructions. From afar, he had already seen that special building.

The bartender will always be a very tall building in the shape of a wine bottle. taller than surrounding buildings. If counted by floors, there are probably seven floors. This wine bottle-shaped building is thicker at the bottom and thinner at the top, and the whole body is a strange amber color. I don’t know how it is made in this building, and I can vaguely see that there are faint water waves flowing in this amber wine bottle-like building. Extremely peculiar. It can be said that the Bartenders Club itself is one of the landmarks of Tianshui City.

There are no soldiers guarding here, and it has been looted, so what's the use of guarding. The arched door was tightly closed, and one could vaguely feel that it was filled with a murderous aura.

After thinking for a while, Ji Dong walked to the door and knocked on it. After several times, there was movement inside.

The door opened, and a middle-aged man came out, looked Ji Dong up and down a few times, and said calmly, "What's the matter?"

Ji Dong said: "This is the bartender association. I want to take the bartender qualification examination."

A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man, "The general meeting is temporarily closed. It will not be open to the public for a short time. You go." Before Ji Dong could speak again, the door was already closed with a bang.

If he didn't know that something happened to the bartenders' association, Ji Dong would have put up a challenge at the door in such a situation, but now he is in trouble. It's never good to be too aggressive. With a move in his heart, he had already thought of a way. If he wanted to directly intervene in the looting of the Bartenders Guild, he might have to rely on his identity when he entered the city.

Just as Ji Dong was about to leave and go to the Magician's Guild, suddenly, his keen hearing caught a noise coming from the bartender's club.

The door that had just been closed opened with a bang, and an angry voice came from inside, "Get out, get out. I don't have your son. From now on, you are not allowed to step into the door of the Bartenders Association Drive him out. Whoever intercede for him will get out of the guild together with him.”

"Do you think I am willing to come back? You are too stubborn. If my mother and sister hadn't been taken away, I wouldn't have come back. One day, I will replace your reputation as the God of Dionysus." Amidst the chaotic footsteps, a person He came out angrily from the bartenders guild, followed by several people.

"Du Ming, don't be impulsive, kid. The president is getting angry. You shouldn't contradict him!"

The one who came out first looked twenty-three or four years old, with a slender figure, about the same height as Ji Dong, his handsome face was a little red because of anger, and he had short black hair, very handsome. Those who followed him were all middle-aged men with at least six-star bartender badges, who were constantly persuading him.

"Everyone else will come. Tell him to go away." The angry voice from before came again. The few people who came out waved helplessly to the young man, then turned back to the bartender club and closed the door again.

Ji Dong stopped when he heard the voice coming from inside. The young man walked out of the guild and strode over, just in time to meet him face to face.

Seeing Ji Dong, the young man froze for a moment, and the angry expression on his face subsided slightly, "Who are you?"

Ji Dong smiled slightly and said, "Hi, I'm here for the bartender assessment. It's just that something happened to the guild, saying that the assessment is suspended. What are you?"

The young man said angrily: "What bartender qualification do you rely on! Now this bartender guild has changed its taste. It is not a magician with a level of three crowns or above, and it is not allowed to be a bartender above three stars. What is this?" Reason? Who stipulated that a bartender must be a magician? Is it really that good to mix drinks with the help of magic power? This is completely against the purity of the bartender. Relying on simple bartending techniques to defeat them, these bartending methods that can only be assisted by magic power. I advise you not to take the test. It is meaningless. If you are a magician, go to the Magician Guild, not a magician, let alone There is no point in taking the bartender qualification."

Hearing the young man's words, Ji Dong couldn't help being a little surprised. After coming to this world, he also met some bartenders. This was the first time he heard someone say that they should mix wine with pure techniques instead of magic power. And judging from the previous conversations, the relationship between this young man and the president of the bartenders guild, Du Sikang, the god of wine, is unusual. The young man looked interesting.

"You are right. Technique is the basis of bartending. It is the most important thing in bartending ability. However, everything has its two sides. If one day, you can beat them with pure bartending skills, In special cases, add magic power to mix the drink. Or the effect will be better. Different cocktails have different needs when mixing. Some are impossible to do with magic power, and some are purely technical. Achieved. None of the methods is absolute, and only by combining with each other can the bartending skills reach a deeper level. Perhaps, these people in the Bartenders Guild are also working hard in this direction?"

After the young man heard Ji Dong's words, the righteous indignation on his face gradually disappeared. Surprised: "It sounds like you have a deep understanding of bartending! Anyway, you can't be assessed, and you are the first person who agrees with me. Let's go, I invite you to drink tea, let's chat."

Ji Dong smiled and nodded. This young man must know much better than the four-crown magician at the city gate. It seems that the magician's guild doesn't need to go for the time being.

"My name is Du Ming. I haven't asked for advice yet. What's your name?"

"Ji Dong."

Du Ming looked Ji Dong up and down, and said, "Ji's surname is the national name of the Middle-Earth Empire. Are you from the Middle-Earth Empire?"

Ji shook his head and said, "You can say that, but it's not entirely true. I'm from the Southern Fire Empire. However, my father is indeed from the Middle-Earth Empire."

Du Ming said: "Let's go, let's find a place to sit down and talk. These few days, I'm really depressed to death." He was obviously very familiar with Tianshui City, so he took Ji Dong around and came to a family with an elegant style. I went directly to the second floor of the teahouse, found a seat by the window and sat down.

"Brother, do you think you're not as old as me?" Du Ming asked Ji Dong after ordering a pot of tea.

Ji Dong said: "I am twenty this year. What about you?"

Du Ming said: "I'm twenty-five, but I'm five years older than you. You have the courage to go to the Bartenders Guild to take the bartender exam at the age of twenty. Is it a family tradition or a self-taught talent?"

Ji Dong smiled slightly, and said, "It can be regarded as self-taught." No matter in his previous life or this life, all his bartending skills were learned and researched by himself.

Du Ming chuckled and said, "If you really want to become a bartender, I can give you some pointers in the future. In Tianshui City, I know quite a few people. As long as you really have some skills, I recommend You'll have no problem working in some high-end bars."

Ji Dong laughed and said, "That's good! I'll ask you to give me some pointers later." If Lie Yan was here, he would definitely laugh. This young man named Du Ming actually wants to teach Ji Dong how to mix drinks, even Du Sikang definitely doesn't have the ability. But Ji Dong could tell that this young man named Du Ming had a forthright and straightforward personality, coupled with his thoughts on bartending skills, which made Ji Dong very fond of him.

at the same time. Ji Dong also noticed Du Ming's hands. The palms are white and slender. Obviously, they have taken great care of maintenance, especially the flexibility of the fingers and wrists. They are indeed the most suitable hands for bartending. Obviously, they have worked hard.

Du Ming said: "The Bartenders Guild has branches in some big cities, why did you come here from the Southern Fire Empire to the Northern Water Empire? This road is not close! You don't look like an ordinary person, It must be a magician."

Although Ji Dong's appearance is not very handsome, but his temperament is by no means comparable to ordinary people. Although Du Ming is in a bad mood, he can tell a bit.

Ji Dong said: "I am a fire magician. What about you? Ren water?"

Du Ming said: "Of course. The mages of our Beishui Empire are mainly based on the water system. I'm not a sissy, so I'm naturally the Ren water system. I just heard you say that in some cases, the bartending skill can achieve magic power What is the situation where bartending can’t be done?”

Looking at the burning light in his eyes, Ji Dong was slightly taken aback, because he seemed to see himself in his previous life from this young man. Wasn't he like him in my previous life when I was in my twenties? So passionate about bartending. The bartenders guild had just had such a big incident, he could put it aside temporarily and ask himself about bartending first. This persistence can't help but make Ji Dong's favor for him a little bit more.

"An excellent bartender must first have a good understanding of all kinds of wine. The same wine has different origins and degrees, and the taste will change forever. When mixing cocktails, blending with different ingredients will make the effect better. It is completely different. What magic can do is to add the characteristics of magic to the cocktail, or to use magic elements to affect the taste of the cocktail. And to make the cocktail more colorful when it is prepared. Even the magic can make the cocktail produce a qualitative change. However, If it's just like this, it can't really show the various changes of the wine. It can only make a fixed wine in a fixed mode."

When it comes to bartending, Ji Dong doesn't have to think at all, and talks eloquently, "Just give me an example. If I make a cocktail, then I can do it. Using exactly the same materials and different techniques, I can make a hundred cocktails." There are more than one taste. This is absolutely impossible for magic bartending."

Du Ming was taken aback, "What are you talking about? With the same material, a hundred flavors can be prepared because of different methods. Brother, that's not how you brag." Regarding Ji Dong's statement, he obviously showed doubts.

Many readers said, what about our bartending? Isn't this coming, huh, huh.
